I am syndicated. Show me some respect. When I was a kid, I wanted to be the Mexican Louis Armstrong. They would've called me: Dirty Satchmo.

Stop misrepresenting what LLMs are. They can’t betray you. They don’t think, they don’t feel, they aren’t sentient.

I have empathy for someone who is hurting but it’s so severely irresponsible to report on it this way. It further normalizes the thinking that an LLM can have personhood. Come on

Yes it’s Valentine’s Day. But it’s also the chosen birthday of Frederick Douglass who was born in 1818 on a plantation in Talbot County, Maryland. He escaped from slavery & rose to become the most eloquent and forceful voice for the abolition of slavery & for Black voting rights in the U.S.

I've just remembered that in the Amber TTRPG, you can become more powerful if you promise to write poetry about every session of the game, but if you don't actually do it, the GM gets the universe to bully you. This is very unrealistic, because IRL, the universe bullies you if you do write poetry.

Newsom will be the guy the DNC will rally behind because he "stands up to Trump" and "can work with both sides of the aisle," but it's really because he is a Republican in sheep's clothing. He hates the unhoused. He doesn't understand transpeople. He's going to be the "lesser of two evils."

There seems to be a lot of discussion about Gavin Newsom today.

I wanted to re-share this piece that I wrote, because I have a lot of center-to-left Dems that follow me that want to understand.

There are very good reasons transgender people do not like Gavin Newsom.
